Modules & VBA :: Building Dynamic Filter For Report?
May 20, 2015
I have a button that opens a report. The code behind the button builds the filter criteria for the report based on some selections in a list box.
Code:
DoCmd.openReport "Report", acViewPreview, "", GetCriteria
For VarItem = 0 To Me.List2.listcount - 1
strCriteria = strCriteria & "([ProjectNo]= '" & Me.List2.Column(1, VarItem) & "' And [ClientID] = " & Me.List2.Column(0, VarItem) & ") Or "
Next VarItem
If strCriteria <> "" Then
strCriteria = Left(strCriteria, Len(strCriteria) - 4)
Else
strCriteria = "True"
End If
GetCriteria = strCriteria
This is what the filter would look like with values after running the report (taken from filter bar in report properties):
([ProjectNo]= '150002' And [ClientID] = 206) Or ([ProjectNo]= '150003' And [ClientID] = 79)
Problem is that i only get records for ([ProjectNo]= '150002' And [ClientID] = 206). I this seems only filter ONE set of criteria ignoring all the others. What am i doing wrong?
Is it possible to generate a report from 2 listboxes?
I have attached a pic of what I am trying to accomplish. I am wanting to have a report open with only the criteria that a user selects from the listboxes.
listbox 1: User selects a case number(s)
listbox 2: User selects the fields they would like in the report
So, if the user selects:
Case number: 13-001
Then selects fields:
Allegation Incident date Focus_Last name
This report would be:
Code: Case Number Allegation Incident Date Focus_Last Name 13-001 DUI 06/01/2013 Doe
I have a form that is showing data from 1 table. That table has 12 different fields on it and I want to be able to filter based on selections I make in a combo box in the header of the form. The filter string must be dynamic enough to allow filtering based on 1 criteria selected, or multiple criteria selected. For example:
If I have values in filter fields 3, 5, and 9 I'd want the filter string to be created as follows:
"...WHERE field3 = field3filter.value AND field5 = field5filter.value AND field9 = field9filter.value"
If I have values in only field 7, I'd want th efilter string to be created as follows:
"...WHERE field7 = field7filter.value"
And so on and so on.
I have created some filters before but all of the different VBA syntaxes I'm using seem to come up short.
This code runs to the set frm part then i get a type mismatch? ive tried a few different things and still nothing?
Code:
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) ' Create underlying recordset for report using criteria entered in ' EmployeeSalesDialogBox form. Dim intX As Integer Dim qdf As QueryDef Dim frm As Form ' Set database variable to current database. Set dbsReport = CurrentDb
I'm still learning Access 2010 and having issues getting my buttons to work. I'm working on a simple address database.edit/save button. On form load, my fields are locked and my button will read "edit". After clicking, my fields are unlocked, my search features are locked, and my button reads "save" just how I need it to. The issue happens when I try and save the field edits, lock fields, return search features, and get button to read "edit" again. I know I need to add some code into what I already have, but I'm running into a wall as I have tried many options to get it to work. Here is the code for this button:
Code: Private Function Lockdown() 'locks controls at load Dim tb As Control Dim cb As Control Dim subf As Control
[code]...
Second issue is with my report button. I have not been able to get this to work once. I have done many searches on single record reports, and have found the same code every time. I added that code into my database, but can't seem to get it to work. In my database there are two address (shipping and work location) which I would like to print out together. I have the work location on the main form and the shipping on a subform. There are and upwards of 150 locations I will have in my database, Here is the code I'm working with:
Code: Private Sub cmdrptadd_Click() Dim strReportName As String Dim strCriteria As String
I am very new at all of this. I am trying to build a filter form to just pick out one item. I am trying to filter out Box Numbers that have been entered into the database to run reports on them. I think that I am missing the correct code to do this. I have tried to create a form off the query by just using the box number and then creating a command button to apply the filter. But this doesn't work. I'm sure that I'm missing a step along the way. Help!
I have a form that shows a list of all of my records in my database. I want to be able to click a button called "Report" and have that print a report that has all the records I have filtered on my form. I have a report in the format that i want it in, however, currently it prints every record and not just what is shown on my form. (The form is dynamic and I want the Report to be dynamically based on the form) HELP PLEASE!
I'm trying to figure out how to filter a report using a check box.
I have created a form, which if you push an industry labled button on that form it will show you the report with what work was done for that industry.
Now I'm trying to modify it so that I have a group of check boxes; each check box being a different office location the company has.
What I want to make happen is if say out of office A. B. C. and D., A. and D. are checked and I hit the button of a specific industry it will bring me up a report of office A. and D. Combined for that industry.
From what I've figured I can create a bunch of reports of all the different possiblities and link those to that senerio, but that seems tedious and ridiculous.
Is there a way I can code VBA to do this for me? Or am I going to have to go through the proccess of creating a bunch of different querries and reports beyond what I have now to pull up an industry.
'ExpiryTag' is the name of the text box from above.
When it equals 1, I want the report to show those records. I have done this for other reports and it worked so easily, and for some reason it just doesn't want to work on this report. I believe the difference is that the text box is calculated in the report and not in the query (for this report I can not calculate it in the query). I think it might have something to do with the output of the 1 and 0
i.e. "1" versus '1' or just 1.
I have also tried every iteration of "ExpiryTag = 1"
I don't program in Access very often. I am using Access 2003, and have a client that wants me to create a Mail Merge application using queries against some access databases. Is this something that can be done in Access?
Also, they have some reports that they would like for me to build. Can I make the reports dynamic by setting up some sort of form where they can choose the specifics they would like in the report, and then having those variables determine what will be shown in the report? How involved would the creation of that be with say 15 - 20 variables to choose from?
I have a combobox that I use to combine the employees first name and id number. So when you pull down the list you can select the employee you want and it is saved in the form. Now I need to create a query so that I can create a report on each employee separately. The query will not let me get the Employee Frist Name/ID from that saved field. I thought that what is saves in that field, you can retrieve it in your queries or reports.
I am able to filter a data on a continuous form using drop downs and then the following code attached to a cmdbutton to create a report of the filtered data.
Code: Private Sub Command30_Click() Dim strWhere As String If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False If Me.FilterOn Then strWhere = Me.Filter DoCmd.OpenReport "rptconveyorerrors", acViewReport, , strWhere End Sub
On the same form where I filter the data i can sort it by clicking the headings aswell, however when i generate the report using the above VBA it doesn't take the sort with it and just generates it without the sort.
I am using the following VBA to sort my form
Code: Me.OrderByOn = True If Me.OrderBy = "[empname] DESC" Then Me.OrderBy = "[empname] ASC" Else Me.OrderBy = "[empname] DESC" End If Me.Refresh
I thought it may be possible to use the following sort of VBA to pass the sort however i cant get it to work:
Code: Private Sub Command30_Click() Dim strOrder As String Dim strWhere As String If Me.Dirty Then Me.Dirty = False If Me.FilterOn Then strWhere = Me.Filter If Me.OrderByOn Then strOrder=Me.OrderByOn
I wanted to build a dynamic search form using text box instead of the common combo box type.
I found an example that used the combo box and the searching portion of the code is as followed:
Code: If Nz(Me.txtID, "") > "" Then If Len(Nz(strFilter)) > 0 Then strFilter = strFilter & " And " strFilter = strFilter & "CategoryID = '" & Me.txtID & "'" bFilter = True End If
How to insert (Like "*" & Me.txtID & "*") into the code to make the dynamic search using text box possible.
I have a report, on a control tab, on a main form.
On the form are two buttons: one to show all items, and one to filter them based on a boolean field called showitem.
The buttons work with the code below.
What I want to do but cannot seem to figure out is to have the report default to no filter.
The bound query has no criteria.
I'm trying to set the filter property via the on open or on load event and even if I isolate the report, cannot seem to reach it.
Code: Private Sub b_hide_items_Click() Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem <> 1" Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = True Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery End Sub
Private Sub b_show_all_Click() Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.Filter = "timeline.showItem = 0" Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Report.FilterOn = False Me.Profile_Timeline_wNotes_subreport.Requery End Sub
I am trying to filter a report based on two user inputted dates, but can't seem to figure it out. I've played around with quotation marks, and # but can't seem to figure the syntax out.
Code: Me.OrderBy = "Date Submitted" Me.OrderByOn = True Dim Date1 As Date Dim Date2 As Date Date1 = UserInput Date2 = UserInput DoCmd.ApplyFilter WhereCondition:="[Date Submitted] > Date1 and < Date2"
I'm making a library database program thing... There's an option for the user to view all books on loan.
I have two tables:
Books, which has columns ID*, ISBN, Author, Title, Year, Location BorrowerStorage, which has columns Book ID, Name, Email Address, Desk Number
Book ID in BorrowerStorage is related to the Books primary key.
Now, for the viewing all books on loan, I want it to produce a read only table which contains all the entries from the BorrowerStorage table and the corresponding Title/Author columns (i.e. the records for which the ID in Books column = BookID in Borrower Storage column)...
Hello to all, I created a dynamic report based on cross tab query, the header is a sub report. Number of lines and rows depend on the data typed in a form. Here is my problem. When numbers of rows exceeds for exemple 15 the header and detail line continue on the line below i would like the report continue on another page (see below).
I am using the following cde to generate a Dynamic Crosstab Report. I can get the column labels to work but Ican't get the values to appear in the detail section all I get is #Name? I am using the following code in the report
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Dim i As Integer Dim j As Integer Set db = CurrentDb Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("select * from test2") rst.MoveFirst j = 0 i = 0 For i = 0 To rst.Fields.Count - 1 If rst.Fields(i).NAME Like "*test" Then GoTo skip_it j = j + 1 Select Case j Case 0 Me.Field0.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 1 Me.Field1.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 2 Me.Field2.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 3 Me.Field3.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 4 Me.Field4.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 5 Me.Field5.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 6 Me.Field6.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 7 Me.Field7.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 8 Me.Field8.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 9 Me.Field9.ControlSource = rst.Fields(i).NAME End Select skip_it: Next i rst.Close Set rst = Nothing End Sub Private Sub ReportHeader_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer) Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Dim i As Integer Dim j As Integer Set db = CurrentDb Set rst = db.OpenRecordset("select * from test2") rst.MoveFirst j = 0 i = 0 For i = 0 To rst.Fields.Count - 1 If rst.Fields(i).NAME Like "*test" Then GoTo skip_it j = j + 1 Select Case j Case 0 Me.Label0.Caption = rst.Fields(1).NAME Case 1 Me.Label1.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 2 Me.Label2.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 3 Me.Label3.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 4 Me.Label4.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 5 Me.Label5.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 6 Me.Label6.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 7 Me.Label7.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 8 Me.Label8.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME Case 9 Me.Label9.Caption = rst.Fields(i).NAME End Select skip_it: Next rst.Clone Set rst = Nothing End Sub
What else do I need to do to get data in the detail section In anticipation
I’m creating a report on which I want to group data base on a field that has two different data one is KEY and OTHER. Now I need to be able to show on the detail section all records base on KEY, and group the rest of the records by OTHER.
I have a crosstab Query as the source for my report, of course the issue is the column headings on the report. I have Purchasers as a row heading, Year as a row heading, Month/Year as a row heading, Meter as a column heading, PaidMCF as Value and, a total as a Row heading. My issue is feeding the column headings on my report with the meter names.
Purchaser 1 has 23 meters attached Purchaser 2 has 1 meter attached Purchaser 3 has 6 meters attached Purchaser 4 has 2 meters attached Purchaser 5 has 16 meters attached Purchaser 6 has 11 meters attached.
I created a dynamic crosstab report with 4 unbound fields in the details section and 4 unbound fields in the header section, which all work perfectly well. The crosstab query contains 17 columns. The last 4 columns contain the values I need to take the sum of. I have put some code in the open event procedure of the report.
Private Sub Report_Open(Cancel As Integer) Dim rs As DAO.Recordset Dim db As DAO.Database Set db = CurrentDb Set rs = db.OpenRecordset("Select * from Que_ProjectUren_Sel_Dept_Test")
I'm currently creating an invoicing report for a company, and for record purposes they need a dynamic field on the report for the specific Invoice Number of each client they invoice. I have the field set up currently as a text box =[Invoice#] so they have to enter an invoice number when they generate the report. However, when I generate the report and put in a number, I'm getting some whacky outputs.
For example, I've tested it with a test client, and when I give the client an invoice number of 1, the report somehow changes it to 49.
